As I'm sure you all know I think this is the best game ever. Its multiplayer is a huge part of that... I really like playing War3 online...
Which is why it is no fun at all when its like it is now-- im at home and at home my comp seems to not work right with war3 online... so i cant play it online for now... :( :( :(
I'm reposting this for anyone who didn't see it and becasue i didn't see any of the replies to the original. This week we have the:
LOTUS ELISE
It's made by Lotus, a Britsh sportscar company. This is the 2001 model. The 2002 and 2003 models are carryovers meaning no new changes made.
The Elise has a 1.8 Liter inline 4 cylinder engine. It generates 120 horsepower. Now, that's not much considering it's a sportscar. Almost all cars have more that that. However, the Elise weighs only about 1565 pounds, which is LIGHT fora car.
So due to lightweight, the Elise can do 0-60mph in 5.7 seconds. That's even with a 6 cylinder Porsche Boxster. So the Elise is quite fast.
Please repost old comments from before the crash or post new comments.
Most of you have probably already seen this, but in the interest of making this fresh, empty board appear to be alive and contain worthwhile topics to sift through:
It's that time of year...for Magic Box to compile all of its Dengeki numbers and flash them to the entire...three people that visit the site. But if you have any interest, here they are:

Of interest: Pokemon is far from dead, selling a combined 2.74 million copies. Nintendo's traditionally popular properties did not fare as well. Released in late June, Mario sold big initially followed by an exponential drop in sales. Released on Dec. 13, Zelda has yet to establish legs. If it Zelda doesn't , it might finish its sales cycle below the million mark. This should concern the executives at Nintendo, considering the main Mario/Zelda titles on each system have sold well over 1 million copies (Majora' Mask sold about 650,000 copies, and the Capcom Zelda titles sold approximately 750,000 copies). Party software sells well, as Mario Party 4 looks to break Mario Party 3's sales of 615,507. Looking at the continued momentum of the title through the holidays, it seems to be riding a curve that will put it well beyond 650,000.

Edit by DJ: Sorry OB1, but if you are going to rate all games, you can't exclude PC games. I added 3 more catagories, one for PC games.
Oh, and is Metroid Prime in first person? Do you shoot? Then, by sheer logic, it IS a first person shooter. Of course, with that logic then it's also an RPG, since you play a game in a role, but hey I'm just saying is all :D. Yes, I would call Metroid Prime an Adventure. However, unlike Miyamoto, when a game series has like 5 upgrades dedicated to jumping, including a jump move that is an actual attack, and when you do more jumping than fighting in the game, the Metroid series IS a jumping game series! I'm sorry, but it is. Metroid Prime is more shooty than jumpy, but that's fine because MP rocks anway. Okay, enough posting inside someone else's message.
